Oh my lord, reordering the queue or playlists on Amazon Music on iOS is one of the most frustrating interfaces I have ever used. It makes me so mad just thinking about it that I can hardly even pinpoint what’s wrong other than “it is almost but not quite completely broken.”
Exactly. Recordings of live sets, strange/interesting post/doom/stoner metal albums, and - for better or worse - all the bootlegged stuff that Spotify doesn't have because legal disputes as user uploads.
I found this was the same for me in the middle of the pandemic hiring boom too. I sent off a dozen resumes and didn’t hear back from any of them, one post for me on the YC alumni forum and I had a whole week of interviews lined up immediately and one referral to another company which landed me an interview as well and ultimately an offer I ended up accepting.

I never found cold applying to be particularly useful, even during the best hiring times, so I always read these accounts of how bad the market is because someone sent their resume to X number of companies to be a bit useless in judging the market as in my experience that never really worked.
It's the prisoner's dilemma. It's better to cooperate, but if the other party defects, your best option is to also defect (which serves as a motivator to renew the cooperation).
Same in Australia. I’m at a startup involved with placing people on digital projects.

I see a lot of amazing people struggling in the market right now. This is mirrored by a general slowdown in actual project spend by businesses.

Locally, there has been a very very minor uptick in activity prior to Christmas which is a historically weird time for that to happen, so I’m slightly optimistic for the new year.

But the last 12 months have been very tough.
> ffmpeg and related av* libs make major releases frequently.

True, not every lib keeps long-term stable API.

> It's common for distros to carry multiple versions of major libraries. Sometimes it's a frequent churn (like llvm), sometimes it's a multi-year migration (gtk, ncurses, python, libpng).

This is consistent with what i wrote as these are changes in major versions.

> C libraries aren't magically virtuous in their versioning.

My statement was not categorical statement about C libraries, but it was about incentives shaping the ecosystem. Using libraries has costs and benefits. Frequent churn means higher costs, so it is acceptable when bringing higher benefits. In the C ecosystem, the cost for major version churn (or general library API incompatibility) is high, so people avoid it when possible. If sophisticated tooling like Cargo makes building against specific versions easy, it lowers the cost of churn, so everyone is less concerned with it.

It is true that in C ecosystem, keeping stability is not effortless, for software developers it means running CI with tens of distros / distro versions, to test their software against diversity of library versions. Not 'just use my Cargo.lock' (i am not sure how widespread this approach is in Rust ecosystem, but at least some people argues for it in this discussion).
If you care about your “privacy” and no external service providers having access to your data - that means you can’t use iCloud - at all, any messages service, any back up service, use Plex and your own hosted media, not use a search engine, etc.
I'm able to thrive under any political system. Globalism is just large scale fascism in my eyes.
What are your needs? I quite dislike MySQL's fulltext search as it's much less configurable than say, ElasticSearch. I would recommend something like ElasticSearch if you need flexibility down the line. I've used it happily for a few years now as a search engine for a content site I work on.
Asking the user is perfectly reasonable. Apple themselves used to understand and champion that approach.

In my home city, many houses around are my family and childhood friends, and I wish I could replicate that with my other friends too. If I ever become a billionaire and can buy a small village and make everyone move there, it would be a dream coming true!

... and a lot of money to government oficials (lobby).
Really glad you all are out there doing what you do. In my opinion it is the most important thing for Rusts long term success and longevity. No clue what the costs are like for running on Ferrocene but maybe one day I will have a project that'd benefit from it.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Care to show some evidence?
With hall effect keyboards you can set the starting actuation of a "half press".

e.g. a start actuation of 0.5mm and full press of 3.0mm gives enough room to avoid false positive full presses.
Musk wants "hard core" talent, remember Twitter?

He wants people hungry, super motivated and, oh yeah, not too expensive. Remember stories of him eating peanut butter sandwiches and sleeping on floors? He's a frugal/cheap guy.

There's a shortage of Americans willing to meet Musks "brilliant and cheap" spec.

H1bs are cheap(er), hungrier, and sometimes brilliant. And if not brilliant at least "hard core" if required.

Since we can't replace Musk with AI yet, we have a "labor shortage" of cheap, hardcore, brilliant talent. Yup.

I don't consider TCP an abstraction at all. The abstraction is the unix API over it, and then again, the

> ssize_t send (int socket, const void *buffer, size_t size, int flags)

is not a nice one. When was the last time you had the data in a buffer, wanted to send it over to the peer at the other side, but didn't mind that it's not sent in it's entirety ? So you have to write a loop over it. Also, is the call blocking or not ? (well, you'll have to read the code that created it to know, so that's no fun neither).

However, it does prove the point the author is trying to make: good abstractions are hard to find!

Anyway, I tried to think of a better example of a good abstraction and found the "Sequence" that's available in plenty of programming languages. You don't need to now what the exact implementation is (is it a list, a tree, don't care!) to be able to use it. Other example I found were Monoid and Monad, but that's tied to the functional paradigm so you lose most of the audience.
Vscode provides extracting methods and variables too, at least it does for python and c++. I didn't know it was a rare feature.

What do you mean? Only way I can think of is social media advertising revenue going to big tech instead of local media. But a net negative effect on non-US economies seems hard to believe.
When Americans are motivated to move out of the small town they were born in, it's often because that "small town" is a dying and depopulated hollow shell full of awful, racist, jobless, drug-addicted idiots who are mostly only surviving off of some kind of long-term disability insurance.

Often, with these kinds of places, they aren't a place your family has lived for generations, and nor are they a place you have the opportunity to form any good connections in; rather, they're somewhere your parents had to move to when they lost their jobs/went bankrupt/etc, and so could no longer afford to live anywhere with higher land values.

Everyone living in these places encourages anyone who has any potential at all, to get out as soon as they can.
I don't have a list on hand, but at least Cloudflare and Akamai are part of the network hops. Technically you only need 2 hops to make sure no origin or data extraction can be done.
Most people shouldn't host locally at all.

Of those who do, I can see students and researchers benefiting from small models. Students in particular are famously short on money for fancy hardware.

My experience trying one of the Phi models (I think 3, might have been 2) was brief, because it failed so hard: my first test was to ask for a single page web app Tetris clone, and not only was the first half the output simply doing that task wrong, the second half was a sudden sharp turn into python code to train an ML model — it didn't even delimit the transition, one line javascript, the next python.
Let's not forget about a particularly frustrating kind of "level of abstraction": the bespoke interface to a part of the code that has side effect, and that has exactly two implementation : one in the production code, and one in the tests.

If I were to create a language tomorrow, that's the one aspect where I would try something that I have not yet found elsewhere : can you make it so that you can "plug" test doubles only for test, but keep the production path completely devoid of indirection or late binding.

(I'm curious if you know of a language that already does that. I suppose you can hack something in C with #ifdef, of course...)

I mean, yeah if you are using Kotlin you are almost inherently locked in to IntelliJ... by design. But for java proper, it's far from the only viable IDE.
I didn't make an argument. I simply made an observation. But I'll make one now: it's not possible with communism. This has been empirically tested, at the expense of millions of human lives. I'd say in light of that that there is no need for further hand wringing on this topic.

Is it possible some other way? I don't know. I do know that life expectancy worldwide has been going up since the 70s, as has quality of life and quality of nutrition. Maybe what we are already doing works?
I have normal memory but my interpretation of the worst programmer I've worked with is that he had extraordinary memory and used that to write extremely tangled code but due to remembering every call site and randomly named function he thought the code base was flawless. And the expectation was that efter he explained a piece of code once then I too should have committed that to memory and then be able to recall it days later when it unexpectedly mattered when explaining a new piece of code. Failing to do that would lead to a "sigh, I'll explain it from scratch again". I don't really remember but I think he used intellij, but like a tabbed text editor. Always ctrl-shift-f "startoffunctionname".
And that should rightfully be your informed choice. Just like everyone else should have the right to know what data their devices are sending before it happens and be given the informed choice to refuse. People shouldn’t have to learn that from a random blog post shared on a random website.
You can embed and work with UTF-8 strings with no issue (I have source with emoji string literals), but if you need complex manipulation of code points vs glyphs etc. I’m not sure how robust the libraries are for what you are trying to do.

SEO pages tend to be infested with ads (which google makes money on,) whereas legitimate businesses much less so. Imagine this scenario: you run a B&B on a popular tourist island and take reservations over the web. You pay google to run an ad relevant to your business. Some SEO turkey comes along and builds a ranked-up site that shows that ad, and has no other real reason to exist. Does google make more money or less money with the SEO operator in the equation? Would the original business have even bought a google ad if they could get organic traffic to their site without all the SEO spam?
I wonder if relying on home equity as an appreciating asset the cause of a lot of our problems in the US?

A 99 year lease is a kind of estate duty that restarts the opportunity clock each generation. This way the kids will inherit less and really have to work to create their own wealth. The only thing they are able to inherit is early life preparation like education. I’m sure there are other advantages parents pass down to their kids but by imposing limits, social mobility is preserved.

My technical review is very hard, but it is directly applicable to the work I'm doing. And I've seen some candidates just do outstanding based entirely on their natural curiosity to look a bit deeper. I've been using a form of it for five years, so it's well reviewed.
I took one of these trains. The service was short-lived though.

It was called iDNight, by iDTGV, a former low cost high speed train operator in France. The idea was to run high speed trains at a slow speed during the night, turning a 3 hour trip into an 8 hour trip so that you can get a full night, and also so it can leave as the departure station is closing and arrive as the destination station is opening, therefore exploiting downtime, I guess.

These were not sleeper cars but regular high-speed train cars, not ideal for sleeping, but since most seats were vacant, at least in my experience, you could easily get two seats for yourself.

That's (obviously) a bit of an exaggeration. BERT is just another transformer architecture. Cut down from ~100 layers to 1, ~1k dimensions to ~10, and ~10k tokens to 100, and you're only 1e6 faster / more efficient, still a factor of 10k greater than your estimate and also too small to handle the detection you're describing with any reasonable degree of accuracy.

https://jalopnik.com/did-musk-propose-hyperloop-to-stop-cali...

At the time, it seemed that Musk had dished out the Hyperloop proposal just to make the public and legislators rethink the high-speed train.

He didn’t actually intend to build the thing. It was more that he wanted to show people that more creative ideas were out there for things that might actually solve problems and push the state forward. With any luck, the high-speed rail would be canceled. Musk said as much to me [Ashlee Vance] during a series of e-mails and phone calls leading up to the announcement.
I think in our defense there is simply not enough people and towns to support a rail network like this. A shame, really, 'cause a WestJet flight from Victoria to Calgary is way more expensive than it needs to be and don't even get me started about cross-country flights.

I would accept if Via rail was cheaper. I have been looking at those cross-country trips and it's literally $4k CAD per person. I get that it's accommodation, too, but still.

What makes you think that this is the biggest problem if things like AES and RSA are suddenly breakable?

If someone wanted to get a hold of your cloud hosted data at that point, they would use their capacity to simply extract enough key material to impersonate a Secure Enclave. That that point, you "are" the device and as such you "are" the user. No need to make it more complicated than that.

In theory, Apple and other manufacturers would already use PQC to prevent such scenarios. Then again, QC has been "coming soon" for so long, it's doubtful that any information that is currently protected by encryption will still be valuable by the time it can be cracked. Most real-world process implementations don't rely on some "infinite insurance", but assume it will be breached at some point and just try to make it difficult or costly enough to run out the clock on confidentiality, which is all that really matters. Nothing that exists really needs to be confidential forever. Things either get lost/destroyed or become irrelevant.
The logical argument is even if you include my time in the airport on both ends it'll still be faster for me to fly from DFW to NYC or LAX than even the fastest trains of Europe, and probably still cost a comparable amount.

If there was HSR between Houston and Dallas, sure I'd take that. Same for Dallas to Kansas City or something similar to that I'd love that. But that's about the distance where even the extra wait and commute time for the airport balances out the fact the plane is going to be flying straighter and faster. In the end I'm not going to take HSR to go to Orlando or Montreal from Dallas, I'm going to fly.
In most cases, they are not important. All the offers I received asked for a cover letter, and I always submitted a one-line PDF that said I would discuss my work history and why I'd like the job only in an interview.

> Youtube's best audio is format 251: Opus with a variable bitrate target of 128k. Note that 128k Opus is approximately equal in quality to 320k mp3 (as in, it's generally considered transparent)

12 ohms brings the rail down to 1.47 volts, still no SSD.
6 ohms is enough to finally break/trip whatever circuit is allowing this situation, bringing the rail down to 0v in power-off. Of course, that's almost 2 watts of constant draw during the power-on state, so not a long-term solution.
Russian navy is objectively shitty.

For one simple statistic - USA has about 2 times the number of nuclear submarines Russia has. Despite that Russia/USSR has lost 7 nuclear submarines and USA have lost 2. You cannot dismiss accident rate higher by order of magnitude as propaganda or bias.

Russian fleet is good enough to launch missiles at a country without fleet from long range. It's not good enough to do it without significant loses. It's also not good enough to do it while keeping the sea in question under control.

There's a reason Russian Black Sea fleet left Crimea and rebased to a port in occupied Georgia.
